Read Authentic Ratings for the Lista

In a significant move for its operations, Smyril Line has announced the extension of the charter for the ferry 'Lista' for an additional 11 months, set to commence in September 2025. The 'Lista' took over from 'Glyvursnes' (IMO: 9198977), which had been servicing the Tórshavn-Hirtshals-Þorlákshöfn route. The 'Glyvursnes' faced a catastrophic engine room fire in Hirtshals on January 2, resulting in a tragic loss of one crew member. Fortunately, repair efforts were concluded on May 2, enabling the ship to return to service. Currently, the 'Lista' operates between Rotterdam and Tórshavn, continuing to serve as a vital link in Smyril Line's network.

The vessel 'Strait of Magellan', which has been laid up at Tilbury since August 29, 2011, has embarked on a new journey. On the evening of June 13, 2012, the ship set sail toward Bristol. The estimated time of arrival is June 15 at 2 PM, where it will reunite with its laid-up sister vessel, 'Bering Strait', which has been docked at the port since January 12.
